An authentic Indian specialty cooked with freshly ground roasted spices, caramelised onions, and aromatic herbs in the traditional style.
Ingredients
- • 4 ripe tomatoes, roughly chopped
- • 10 garlic cloves
- • 3 dried red chilies
- • 2 tbsp sesame oil
- • 1/2 tsp mustard seeds
- • 10 curry leaves
- • 1/2 tsp salt
Preparation Steps
1
Phase 1
Heat 1 tbsp of the oil and fry the garlic cloves and dried red chilies until the garlic turns golden.
2
Phase 2
Add the tomatoes and salt and cook until soft, pulpy, and dry, about 10 minutes.
3
Phase 3
Cool slightly and pulse briefly so the chutney stays slightly coarse, not fully smooth.
4
Phase 4
Heat the remaining oil, crackle the mustard seeds and curry leaves, and pour the sizzling tempering over the chutney.
5
Phase 5
Serve with hot idli, dosa, and uttapam at tiffin stalls; keeps refrigerated for 3 days.
